Don't waste time over analyzing - pick a tuner, throw up some wire
and ground radials, and operate...
A local ham who lives in a trailor park is closing in on 300 countries
confirmed and his only antenna for all this is a single multiband
vertical, 21 feet tall, disguised as a flag pole...

Just do it...

Yup. I'm on HF with a $50.00 used transceiver, a $5.00 pi-network tuner,
some coax, a balun and two pieces of copper pipe laying on my roof. It
ain't purty but I'm talking to people and they're talking back.
